Free during the length of the exhibition, Sean Alward: Subterranean Rainbow, for gallery visitors.
Part memoir, part science fiction short story, this essay was written by Sean Alward on the occasion of his solo exhibition at SFU Gallery, Subterranean Rainbow. Written in five parts, Black Ferns on a Glass Planet is a landscape born of natural science, the unknown, and the human entanglement with non-sustainable resource extraction and its lasting implications.
